AUGUST RUSH...

It’s not the perfect time for movies for me these days; I don’t even have a time to look after myself. But 3 weeks ago, I managed to find a free time to watch the perfect movie after a very long time. I downloaded it 2 months ago, but watched it only after my best friend commented how amazingly superb it is. He’s the one who watches the movies first, which I download and tells me which ones are good and which ones are not so good. This one.. of cos, he actually said that he’ll stop watching movies if I don’t fall in love with this one.

One fine Sunday… I watched it… and fell in love with music… all over again. It’s a musical. The best one out there yet, I would say. Music is a religion, they say. Tranquility… Peace… Comfort.. That’s music.. The slow tingling sound of the wind chimes… The breathtaking melody of the guitar.. the birds… the sound of the cool breeze flowing across the corn fields… It’s magical. Just magical!! The release date was Nov 13th, 2007. I wonder why the hell I didn’t come across this one all this time. What an idiot I am!

Freddie Highmore stars as Even Taylor aka August Rush, the orphan boy in search of his parents. He’s desperate that one day he would find his parents through music. His parents fell in love, because of music.. and as two people with different styles of music, they live in this world, searching the existence of the other counterpart. The boy… father .. and mother. What will music do to their lives? Will it change their lives?

I won’t babble about it further. It’s just magical… and so beautiful. I recommend it to ANYBODY… just ANYBODY! Download it.. or buy it. No sooner, you’ll find out that I was not lying..
